I started to have a few small problems with my Z, and I was getting tired of the way it handled on some roads. It would jerk allover, following the different lines, pitches, etc in the road and it sometimes felt difficult to keep it in a straight line. I'm almost certain the tires are to blame, but I wasn't going to change them out because they had life left in them. Along with the undiagnosed ~$600 "sensor issue", I said it was time to go. I also wanted AWD. I truly loved my Z, and it was just as difficult as getting rid of my 350z. Hopefully I can experience the same joy with my new Infiniti. I purchased a new Infiniti Q60S AWD. Infiniti is definitely geared much more towards the luxury side of things, versus Nissan. The ride is great and the power is very smooth. It feels like it has the same power as the Z( which it should, same motor obviously) but its delivered in a much different way. That and I am going from a manual to paddle shifters..I've wanted paddles for a long time but I prefer manual . The AWD S model is not offered in manual. Anyway, I plan on sticking around here as before..guess I just won't fit in as well!
That is a nice ride for sure. However, you should take it back. The interior photo clearly shows that it is missing a pedal. I see only two (not counting the dead pedal). Obviously this is a manufacturing defect.

You picked a great car by the way. Let us know how the dealer handles the pedal issue.

Wanting AWD is one of the reasons I traded. To my knowledge, the AWD+sport package isn't offered in the manual. Paddle shifters are the next best thing

Congrats!! I have one too, except it's not an AWD, and it was before they changed the name from G37 to Q60. It is a very beautiful car for sure.

Actually it did, a big silver one. I took a distorted picture of the car while it was in the showroom, so I decided not to upload that one.

Edit: I did upload one of the pics from the showroom -_-
